STRUCTURE AND MECHANISM OF INTERLEUKIN-1BETA CONVERTING ENZYMESTRUCTURE AND MECHANISM OF INTERLEUKIN-1BETA CONVERTING ENZYME
Structural highlights
FunctionCASP1_HUMAN Thiol protease that cleaves IL-1 beta between an Asp and an Ala, releasing the mature cytokine which is involved in a variety of inflammatory processes. Important for defense against pathogens. Cleaves and activates sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs). Can also promote apoptosis.[1] [2] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf.
